Do Murus SIPs require any other special considerations?
Murus SIPs essentially create an airtight, energy efficient building envelope. Mechanical ventilation is required in order to maintain acceptable humidity levels within a Murus structure. An air-to-air exchanger (often called a heat recovery ventilator (HRV) or an energy recovery ventilator (ERV)) is a mechanical device that draws fresh air from outside while simultaneously exhausting stale air from inside. During this process, the incoming fresh air is preheated or precooled with the outgoing stale air without allowing the two airstreams to mingle, thus recovering much of the heating or cooling energy from the stale air.
